And I don’t know how she knew, [but] there were some shiny packets on the nightstand. “And she said what they were and told me what they were used for. And then there was a needle laying beside the packet. Me and my friend poked lots of holes in the packets. “Then, six months later, my mum told me she was pregnant and I was so happy, but years later my mum still says, ‘I don’t know how she happened. We were so careful.’" @mama__kee @Sam Myrick I’m sort of responsible for your existence. #sister #fyp #sorrynotsorry In the comments section, other TikTokers were left stunned by her revelation, with many saying they would never be brave enough to share that information. “The way I would have taken that to the grave,” one TikToker commented.
